[AH] Five #alternatehistory #maps: Britain, Latin Mediterranean, Australia, Germany, Taiping China

• Reddit's imaginarymaps shares this map imagining the implementation for a different sort of united British Isles, empowering historic provinces over the component nations.


• Was it ever plausible, as this imaginarymaps map has it, for not just the southern shore of the Mediterranean but the eastern Mediterranean to be thoroughly Latinized?


• This imaginarymaps map raises an interesting possibility: Why couldn't Australia have ended up being colonized by multiple European powers?


• This r/imaginarymaps map imagines a great power Germany created out of the 1848 Revolutions. (It is so big, in fact, that I am not sure how it survived watching neighbours.)


• This r/imaginarymaps map imagines a surviving Taiping China, though I do not think it likely it could have co-existed with the Qing. One or the other was bound to go.
